Works for me - you should try adding a texture to complete the effect. Nicely done.

Thank you all for the comments. In response to PixelStan's inquiry about technique, in Lightroom I significantly lowered the Texture and Clarity values to create the soft effect I wanted for this particular image.

Good morning "J",

I have used this technique many times in the past and love the look. I used to be a complete "sharpness" addict and eventually grew out of it (40 + years!). Great shot.

All the best to you and yours and stay safe during these interesting times,

Terry

Nice feeling but so much of the grass in front is out of focus that I find it a little distracting.

Jeff, I don't see any grass, just corn stalks.
